"In a time when flaunting your best self on social media has become a norm,
narcissistic traits seem to be everywhere.

In today's slang, off-putting behaviors like entitlement, superiority, and
self-congratulating are known as 'flexing'. Such traits might be more common
these days, but being narcissistic is still seen as a pathological personality
trait, akin to being sadistic, manipulative, or even psychopathic.

However, a 2021 study of 270 people with a median age of 20 lends more credit
to the notion that narcissistic behaviors are not always driven by the same
things as psychopathy."
